Absolutely hilarious idea. First off Russell's value doesn't command Gary Harris, MPJ, Hernangomez, Vanderbilt AND a first round pick.
2nd off, why would a potential top 2 team like Denver trade such a key piece like Harris for a risk like Russell? Jokic is their PG, with Murray and Harris as 2nd and 3rd ball handlers respectively.
3rd, Russell has regressed considerably. He looks nothing like the crafty primary scoring option he was in Brooklyn. I largely believe the reason why that is is because the Warriors are just not using him correctly. Now that Curry is out, maybe Russell starts to go off, but the lack of talent around him means teams can triple team him with no repercussions.
The only team that's desperate enough to make some noise AND would want to trade for Russell are the Wolves. They've long been interested in him and the fact him and KAT are friends only builds that case.
What a lazy article by the writer.
